Quote of the Day: Newt Gingrich On Urbanity

Everyone knows that the only people who live in apartments are either welfare queens or urban elites. Now the Newt adds journalists to the list, speaking to charter members of the spawl-automobile-energy industrial complex, at a Rally for Homeownership. He is quoted in the Wall Street Journal:

Those who, you know, live in high-rise apartment buildings writing for fancy newspapers in the middle of town after they ride the metro, who don’t understand that for most Americans the ability to buy a home, to have their own property, to have a sense of belonging is one of the greatest achievements of their life, and it makes them feel like they are good solid citizens.
